I wonder if any readers of taglines have any advice to offer on the subject of coypu. In our Laguepie garden large holes have being appearing. We filled the first one and put chicken wire over the area. Now a new hole has appeared and we are worried that deep burrowing could undermine our swimming pool. The size of the holes has led us to conclude that they are being dug by coypu, the garden is situated close to the Aveyron. The Mairie are unable to suggest any solution and the RAGT say there is no poison available.
Has anyone else been bothered by these creatures (called ragondin in France) ? We would welcome any advice.
Fingers crossed

Val says Maybe worth contacting the fishing club as they might try and trap them. I remember in Cordes a few years ago men from the Mairie put out traps as they were worried about the banks of streams being dislodged by their activities. Any ideas anyone?
